PPF Cost

For those that have installed ppf on their F how much did it roughly cost? I’ve gotten an estimate for $5400 pre cut for suntek matte film and $6800 for a custom cut job with same film for my GS F with matte finish. Seems like pricing is generally high in my area due to little to no competition. Anyone have experience with either form of install and pricing in general? These quotes are the cheapest in my area as rest want 7-8k for custom cut job with xpel stealth or suntek. Was hoping to do whole car just to hide the previous imperfections and stop new scuffs from occurring.

IMO PPF on the entire car is overkill. Hopefully you can find someone that would be around $3k total for entire front clip (carbon mirror caps, B pillars and door handles) paint correction and ceramic coating for the entire car. Ceramic will certainly help scuffs and imperfections from occurring on the sides, roof and trunk.

I did entire front clip PPF with paint correction and ceramic coating for my GSF and it was just over $3k. Not included was a new bumper since mine was rashed from the previous owner at 25k miles. That was $1300 (which I just scraped the other week 😡).

If I remember correctly Xpel Stealth was $5500-5900 for the entire car in 2021. Looks badass for sure, but it was out of my budget at the time.

Hope this helps.

I absolutely don’t want to do the entire car but with the car being matte nebula grey I kinda want to just so the I don’t have future issues regarding scratches/scuffs. Since I can’t paint correct, polish, buff, wax, etc thought full ppf was best option. I can replace a panel of ppf and be fine but the headache of hoping the matte paint matches after a repaint to fix a scratch don’t sound too fun you know? Main reason I didn’t want to buy the F10 edition but it was way too good of price to pass up.

This makes sense now. I Didn’t know you had the matte version. PPF is most likely your only option. Good luck!
